Новый мост, Modern bridge in Kirov, Russia
Novy Most is a concrete bridge that crosses the Vyatka River and carries traffic between different parts of the city. The structure features multiple supporting pillars and spans the waterway at a considerable height above the river surface.
Work on the bridge began in the mid-1980s but progressed slowly due to financial limitations affecting the region. The project was finally completed in the late 1990s, marking an important infrastructure achievement for the city.
The bridge connects the industrial area near the Avitek factory to the Kirov-Syktyvkar highway, forming a vital link in the regional transportation network.
The bridge is open year-round for both vehicle and foot traffic as a major city thoroughfare. Plan your crossing during quieter times if you prefer a more relaxed walk across it.
During its construction phase, the bridge's development required significant changes to local waterways that still affect the surrounding area. The alterations made to river channels during building remain visible in the landscape today.
